THE PILOT REPORTED THAT RAIN HAD OCCURRED ON THE PREVIOUS NIGHT AND THERE WAS WATER ON THE 2430 FT GRASS RUNWAY. HE REPORTED THAT DURING ROTATION, THE AIRCRAFT HIT THE WATER AND LOST AIRSPEED. SUBSEQUENTLY, THE AIRCRAFT FAILED TO GAIN SUFFICIENT ALTITUDE TO CLEAR TREES BEYOND THE END OF THE RUNWAY. IT STRUCK AN ORANGE TREE AND CRASHED.
